Deportation of gang member Abrego Garcia faces legal firestorm
Wednesday, May 28, 2025, 7:37 pm
The recent deportation of alleged gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia has become mired in legal controversy. As judicial officials denounce last-minute legal tactics used during the removal process, critics highlight serious due process concerns and potential missteps in the authorities’ high-profile crackdown on gang-related criminality.
U.S. Rep. Glenn Ivey criticizes Homeland Security over deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, citing lack of due process, as Democrats push for evidence in court.
U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis rejects the Trump administration's request for an extension in the Abrego Garcia case, describing their status as a burden "of their own making."
The request for dismissal late Tuesday was a procedural move by the U.S. government, which was required to respond to Abrego Garcia’s lawsuit within 60 days.
